    I picked up an Airman Purist (24hr dial) years ago for a song. Glycine has been ignored for far too long. I'm not sure whether the Rolex GMT master came first but they are more or less contemporary around 1953/4. A Swiss watch with real history for a very affordable price.

      Glycine are garbage!
      Mine the dial had excessive play, none of the seconds hand hit its markers, GMT was way off.
      Return that POS, and bought a titanium Zelos, never looked back!

      @@psiturbo My Airman purist was bought when Glycine was an independent high quality Swiss brand. I don't see how an Airman can have excessive play since the bezels on the Airman have a proprietary locking system. Maybe you should do little research or actually read a post before dissing a high quality automatic Swiss watch, especially before singing the praises of a piece of Chinese 🦮💩!!

      ​​​@@BAF605you should look in the mirror and take your own advice. Zelos is a Singapore company and they are technically Chinese. They are Singaporeans. There are some great Singapore watch companies. Zelos, Vario, Boldr, etc.....
      The Swiss aren't alone at the top anymore. The Japanese, Germans, French, English currently design and make some really good watches. You are suffering from confirmation bias on this matter.

    I have an alternate of number 10 since it's a bit expensive for me, Vostok Komandirskie 24-Hour with flipside dial, meaning that instead of 12th hour will be down there and 24th hour will be up there but this one instead put 0th hour below and put 12th hour below

      I have the 24hr Vostok Komandirskie with the blue face/bezel on a real Vostok mesh bracelet(which are hard to find and ridiculously expensive). It is easily my fav beater watch......I should think it will remain my fav beater watch as it is a truly unique piece. It DOES take some getting used to, but that's OK...

      The Amphibia and Komandirskie are perfect beater watches!!! They are VERY difficult to kill, and when they do finaly go KAPUT you have a spare in the drawer in the other room that you get out and wind up and keep on going for about $75........no battery to change and they keep reasonably good time. I actually have 4 or 5 of these odd Vostok watches....dont think I paid over $125 for any of them. The mesh bracelet is MUCH BETTER than any of the other Vostok metal bracelets!!!@@ahha6304
